          The available tool options for the Rotate Tool can be accessed by
130
 
          double clicking the Rotate Tool icon.

          The Rotate tool can affect the Layer, the Selection, and the Path
141
 
          differently.  These three buttons associate the remainder of
142
 
          the options to one of those three elements.

              <p>
150
 
          The Transform Direction sets which way or direction a layer is
151
 
          rotated. The Traditional mode will rotate the layer as one might
152
 
          expect. If a layer is rotated 10 degrees to the right, then the layer
153
 
          will be rendered as such. This behaviour is contrary to Corrective
154
 
          rotation.
155
 
        </p>
156
 
              <p>
157
 
          Corrective Rotation is primarily used to repair scanned images that
158
 
          are not straight. If the image is 13 degrees askew then you need not
159
 
          try to rotate by that angle. By using Corrective Rotation you can
160
 
          rotate visually and line up the layer with the image. Because the
161
 
          transformation is reversed, or performed backwards, the image will be
162
 
          rotated with sufficient angle to correct the error.
